Funny to see Barry Bader’s name rattled off like he’s just one of the guys, rather than the most ostracized kid in Milford as he was last spring. Apropos of nothing, The Baader-Meinhof Gang showed up in my news feed this morning. Also, whenever I see this guy in a Mets box score I’m reminded of The Secret Pelwecki, who’s been very secretive this season.

I agree, vaganova, about P3. Either that’s James Brown(Godfather of Soul, YES!!!!!!!) gettin’ it on at the Boston gig, 1968, accompanied by a few fans who managed to get on stage past the riot-control police and perform similar moves or it’s a variation of a Texas 2-Step seen with the Country Line Dancing crowd on The Nashville Network. Did the Tilghman manager work on that in practice? It shows. Gotta be prepared for those Texas Leaguers anytime in the game.

T Drew’s mention of Texas leaguers got me thinking about the name Tilghman. The only one I know of is an island in the Chesapeake Bay. Let’s see if Mfnrd goes on to play Easton, Salisbury, Nanticoke, and other Eastern Shore burgs.
